I removed the turbo today as well as the exhaust pipes from the manifolds to the turbo. The flanges on both exhaust pipes were bad so I had some exhaust leaks. The pipes generally seem solid so I might order some flanges and repair them for now.

The Turbo is an Airesearch 5103760. There is another number that looks like L00639 if I am reading it right. These numbers came from the tag and I didn't see anything else. The turbo does have some shaft play that I can feel if I move the shaft up and down. I can probably move the end of the shaft 1/64th of an inch up and down. If I spin the turbo it will stop within a couple of revolutions. Does this sound normal or is it time for a new turbo?

Found it! AR 1.39 . I will talk to Tom tomorrow, get his advice and get one headed this way. Maybe I can get the pillow block bearings replaced before it gets here and I should be all set for the first test drive since I started the conversion. Anyone else have noisy bearings in their Eagle pillow block?
